The hype around microservices was so intense at its peak, I almost worried we'd never reach the trough of disillusionment[1]. As a microservices skeptic, I think we're at a much better place now that people recognize its costs and the tradeoff.
FWIW I think they definitely have a place going forward. But also don’t think the hype is helpful. It’s a big complicated change with goods and bads. Folks should know what they’re getting into.
